SINGER: Johnny Cymbal

SONG:Mr. Bass Man

(bop-bop-bop singing by bass voice)
Mr. bass man, you've got that certain somethin'
mr. bass man, you set that music thumpin'
to you it's easy when you go 1-2-3, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
(bass voice: you mean b-b-bop-p-p-bop bop bop...)
yeah!
Mr. bass man, you're on all the songs
b-did-did-a-boom-boom, b-dit-dit-a-boom-boom-bom
hey mr. bass man, you're the hidden king of rock 'n' roll, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
(bass voice: no no, b-b-bop-p-p-bop bop bop...)
It don't mean a thing when the lead is singin'
or when he goes "hi-yi-yi-yi-yi-yah"
hey mr. bass man, i'm askin' just one thing:
will you teach me? yeah, will you sing?
'cause mr. bass man, i wanna be a bass man too, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
(bass voice: try this, b-b-bop-p-p-bop bop bop...)
hey mr. bass man, i think i'm really with it
b-did-did-a-boom-boom, a-boom-boom-b-dit-dit-dit-dit
c'mon, mr. bass man, now i'm a bass man too, d-d-b-bop-a-bop
(bass voice: that's it, b-b-bop-p-p-bop bop bop...)
(scat bass duet between johnny & bass voice)
(repeat "it don't mean a thing", etc.)
